Gum up all the works. Make them read every bill they introduce in entirety. Aren’t some of the items put forth for funding thousands of pages? Make them read it. Out loud. Call out points on every little thing. Sue them for everything. Tie up everything. Stop their funding.

Even the legal justification for drone strikes on senior members of al Qaeda and associated forces (ostensibly covered under the 2001 AUMF) states that strikes are justified only “when capture is infeasible”
This is contemptible. Not only do we now have confirmation Hegseth has been lying from the jump, but it seems neither he nor his team understand that killing everyone on a target list *becomes* an illegal No Quarter Order if targets try to surrender or are neutralized. Their semantic games are vile.

Sen. Mark Warner: "For them to now say they're going to show the first strikes but then the balance of the next hour with the second strike is somehow classified, that doesn't pass any smell test. I think Congress needs to see it and I think the American people need to see it."

While the president calls elected officials “garbage”, drops F bombs, rapes people, paints himself orange, marries a gold digging ho’, commits fraud, does war crimes, and giggles beside the bone-saw guy, I just don’t see how Duffy is able to promote “courtesy and class” with a straight face.
